On 60 Minutes Amelia Adams meets the people who know ‘the real Kamala Harris’, including old school friends, work colleagues and even a former boyfriend.
The Real Kamala
No one would ever describe last Wednesday’s Presidential debate between Donald Trump and Kamala Harris as edifying. It was big on bluster, but short on substance; an example of how hurling insults to malign opponents now seems to be the preferred way to influence voters. It’s a skill Donald Trump has certainly turned into an art form, but as the world witnessed, the Vice-President is also no mug at it. For many observers though, Kamala Harris still has a substantial problem to overcome if she’s to be elected President. She needs to do more to convince Americans who she really is. On 60 Minutes, Amelia Adams travels across the United States meeting the people who know the real Kamala, including old school friends, work colleagues and even a former boyfriend.

The Blast Wave
We ask a lot of our military personnel. If needed, we expect them to make the ultimate sacrifice. In return they deserve to be provided with as much protection as possible. But as Nick McKenzie reports, Australia is failing its front-line fighters. Many troops who fire or come into close contact with heavy weapons and explosives are developing serious brain injuries. By just doing their jobs they are being exposed to repeated high-impact blast waves. And it’s not only happening on the battlefield, it’s also occurring during their training. Worryingly however, keeping our soldiers safe does not seem to be a high priority for defence leadership.
